8.2.YC 119
Earlier today, the Galactic Defense Initiative released its newly developed hypercomputing substrate to the public capsuleer market across New Eden and the larger multiverse.
Offering their services in upgrading the ships and stations of any willing customers, the Initiative has stated that this release will not require any payment, whether in money or material items, as it is done for the benefit of all.
The new material performs well in excess of three times the efficiency of current New Eden computer materials while offering twice the data space.
This will allow easier installation of starship modules and components, as well as giving more CPU capacity. Naturally, this would appeal to all capsuleers.
The Initiative then granted production and distribution rights of their hypercomputing substrate to CONCORD, with the upgrades being directly incorporated into all new vessels.
GDI also stated that further improvements to their substrate are on the way, with the current release being their first, most basic industrial-scale production model.
Even so, the impact of this unprecedented release cannot be underestimated, which will change New Eden forever.
This is Siena Hanos, reporting for The Scope.
